SUMMARY:Partnerships and Mergers: Doing your due diligence
DESCRIPTION:Description:\nAfter identifying potential organizations for a partnership or merger\, you need to carry out an assessment of the organization in order to determine your compatibility and identify any risks. In this session we will walk through the top ten areas to be researched when contemplating a potential partner. \nWe start with a detailed evaluation of your own strengths and weaknesses\, and then delve into an assessment of the following areas: \n\nCultural and mission fit\nPrograms Review: activities\, resources and areas of overlap\nFinancial strength\n\nPotential liabilities including obligations such as debt\, leases\, etc.\nFunders\, including any overlap or restricted grants etc.\nInternal Systems – Fiscal\, IT\, development\, databases\n\n\nCommunications and marketing capacity\nGovernance and management\nPolicies and Procedures\nLegal issues\n\nPre-work required: Prepare a SWOT analysis (Strengths\, Weaknesses\, Opportunities\, and Threats) for your organization.
